    If it is chokeing, dies a bit, and then cutting out, it is too rich
    If it is revving up very snappy and sharp like, and then cuts out like someone flicked an off-switch, then it is too rich.
    Cure too rich, screw the carb needle in.
    Cure too lean, you have fuel leads too long, or with a pinhole in, or a blockage in fuel lines or carb case, or your carb needle is screwed in too far.

    Other possibility ... bad fuel that is not fresh, with methanol/nitro evaporated out of it, or with some athmospheric moisture absorbed into it....cure upgrade to better/fresher fuel.

    Other possibility ... less likely ... it needs a new glowplug, sure sign of this... it cuts out when you remove the glowstart.

    If you bring it back to the supplier they will identify the cause in seconds and fix/adjust it for free, backup help is in the sale price from all Irish hobby shops that I know of. :)
